Hi,
I have made this custom boot image for myself and I wanted to share it.
I have disabled the bootanimation and I have enabled the kernel messages instead.
just flash the boot image and remove/rename /system/bin/bootanimation
if anyone is willing to help I would create an update zip which flashes the boot partition and renames /system/bin/bootanimation
Cheers,
Matteo

I've never did that, but if someone is kind enough to do it or point me to a good tutorial I will do
CM9 Skankwich doesn't like it, causes non-stop FC's upon bootup.
Do you know if this will work on a HTC One X?
Thanks

I really don't think so! This is as far as I know a modified Galaxy nexus boot image.
The thread was moved to "Galaxy Nexus Themes and Apps" but I don't really think that it's correct.
Tecnically it isn't a boot animation, is a kernel hack to disable it and show the "raw" boot.
Everything that is printed is printed by the TTY subsystem, it's not rendered by a bootanimation
this is awesome. I disabled my boot animation and it only shows the kernel messages for a few seconds then a plain android boot animation appears. Is there any way to make it longer or is that all that is supposed to come up?
i am on aokp b37 also.
good work!
@teknoraver
I would like to add this as a completely new section in my boot animation thread if that's cool??
Couple of clarifications though:
This looks more like a kernel edit to me and therefore this is somewhat ROM specific in that if folks flash this boot.img it will disable certain ROM specific features controlled by the kernel?
Assuming the above is true, a per ROM boot.img would need to be created to make this work whilst preserving all functionality?
To give an example, if you flash a custom kernel over cm9 you will find some of the settings options are blanked out and you are no longer able to use them unless you have a specific kernel control app or you start fiddling around with init.d scripts.
This sounds kind of like "live logcat", is it similar?

No it's different.
Livelogcat is a bootanimation which draws logcat messages in a complex manner.
My patch disables the animation and let the kernel print messages like it does on PC and servers:

Here, flashable zip in recovery
Using any kernel format installer (koush) does not touch the existing ramdisk (no problem on CM etc)
and Kernel.Messages.bootanimation_Restore.zip reverting /system/bin/bootanimation
(Edit : If you deleted that file already, flash Installing_system.bin.bootanimation.zip to restore)
I used image flasher GUI on my ns4g but apparently it is not supported for gnex. What are some other methods of flashing an image.

And for the boot up sound how do I change that?

First off are you rooted? Second are you running a custom rom? If these apply then it should be as easy as replacing the bootanimation.zip file of your choice in the "system/media" folder.

Sorry can't (don't know how to) post links using the xda app. Just look under the "themes and app" section and you'll see a few posts on boot animation. There's different types but the method is the same. Again it depends if your running a custom rom

This does not work. I tried it and was corrected. The Samsug Galaxy S doesn't have a recovery partition according to users in this thread. Therefore, this thread has been discontinnued and should be closed.
First of all, this is not my work. I only compiled it.
This is the usual ClockworkMod recovery, compiled from the CM7 sources with additions/modifications by j_r0dd. What I've done is only to compile it for the Samsung Galaxy S (i9000).
The credits go to Koush for the recovery itself and to j_r0dd for the modifications.
j_r0dd said:
This is based on the latest CM7 source which I modified for myself. I take no credit for the recovery whatsoever, but I will take all the blame for my mods . We all know this is Koush's hard work. Just some things were driving me crazy personally. First was the confirmation menu. I really got sick of scrolling through all those "No"s just to flash something, so i changed it for me personally and just thought I would share. I also created a proper wipe menu. I got sick of some wipes in the main menu and the rest in the "advanced" menu. I made this more Amon_RA like. See the attached screenshot for my changes. That change has led to a few others by me. flash with fastboot or flash_image. THESE ARE NOT IN ROM MANAGER. Also if you have an issue with this take it up with me NOT Koush.

Original Nexus S thread with changelog here.
Only available in standard orange, I actually can't be bothered to find out how to make different color variants.
Download:
GalaxyS_recovery-clockwork-3.2.0.0-j_r0dd_mod.zip (Without the /sdcard mounting bug)
GalaxyS_recovery-clockwork-4.0.0.0-j_r0dd_mod.zip (Buggy when mounting /sdcard)
Disclaimer
These recoveries are compiled using the latest commits from koush, j_r0dd and others. That means they haven't been thoroughly tested and might have minor/major issues. I take no responsibility for any damages this thing might cause, but most things should work as intended. If you want something guaranteed to work, I think you should stick with one of the older versions.
Source code available here.
OK, and what am I to do with it?
Does this support RFS ?
Or only EXT4 ?
The recovery image is not supported to flash it on I9000.....
this is great.... i don't think it's Odin flashable rightnow, so not trying anything for now but would like to see it in flashable form. I am right, right?
The problem is I don't know anything about flashing an SGS phone. I simply assumed one uses an img file for the recovery. I'll see tomorrow if there's a way to make it work.

Stupid question?
Why remove it if all you need to do is touch /sdcard/clockworkmod/.no_confirm with stock recovery? and it does the same thing?
No, with this one you don't have so many "no" choices in the menu. And other differences in the menus as well. Look in the Nexus S thread for more details.

No, that's a different thing. In this recovery, you'll still need to confirm, but you won't have to go through so many "no's" to reach the "yes". You'll have no and yes as the two only choices. Also, j_r0dd moved some wipe features into main menu -> wipe. He also removed the obsolete "Install update.zip", seeing as people will browse directories and name files other things than update.zip nowadays. Things like that. That's the reason for the mod.
Updated OP to version 4.0.0.0.
Added back the 3.2.0.0 version in the OP so you won't have the /sdcard mounting issue. Hopefully it can be resolved soon, so we can start using the 4.0.0.0 version. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks for trying but a SGS does not have a recovery partition.
The recovery executable you have built needs to be embedded into the kernels zimage on SGS.
Its the one thing that stopped me building a psfmod recovery for SGS unlike every other device where recovery has its own kernel etc, the SGS recovery is in the main system kernel. Bad practice on Samsung for that.
People will have to wait.
FYI, CWM 4.0.0.1 is on githib now with sdcard bug fixed.

You need a kernel/rom that supports bootanimation.zip
The stock/touchwiz based roms use a .qmg file for the animation instead.
Also the images in the bootanimation.zip would need to be modified for our resolution 400*800 as opposed to the 1280*720 of the Nexus.
The bootanimation.zip is already available for 400*800 devices & I can confirm it works beautifully on CM7

Do not assume, no it is not a flashable .zip, you will need to manually insert to system/etc/media/
I usually rename the existing one to bootanimation.zip.bak just in case.....

Hi
Does anybody have a CWM flashable Zip for the Nexus4 Boot Logo.
Just flashed a ROM & I have the boring old "Android" on startup.
I'd like to have the glowing Nexus "X" logo back again
Thanks.:good:
I'd just download a ROM with it and extract it. However, you might like this. Don't remember where i found it but it matches the nexus perfectly.
Here's a better idea of what you're looking at.
you mean boot animation
I use the bootanimation provided above and like it. Works on my Galaxy Nexus also.
Here's the link for the original X from the Nexus One. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764 I actually prefer this over the new X.
Tried flashing this in CWM and nothing changed...

What he said. Unless the person who posted it says its a flashable bootanimation.
To verify, open up the zip file. If it's a bunch of folders named /part0/ /part1/ etc then its not flashable.
Flashable: has a folder to /data/... or /system/media
chances are they're not flashable. but open to check.
Same here,
after I tried to get a custom boot animation it only shows the default "android" logo on boot.
I messed with the premissions in /styem/media/ can I revert that ?
+1 for the idea of a flashable version - specifically one compatible with Cyanogenmod
I have been running nightlies via CyanDelta and would LOVE to have a bootanimation zip that I could plop in the auto-install script to bring back the stock Nexus 'x' boot. Sadly every flashable bootanimation for the original nexus logo I have tried seems to install the files in the wrong location for CM.

store the bootanimation in /data/local/
after flashing a new nightly or whatever, it will keep your bootanimation. only way for it to reset is if you do a factory reset. enjoy.
(worked on my galaxy nexus, not sure if it works on N4 but it should, try it, shouldnt harm you.. pretty positive that its the same on N4)
edit: the bootanimation i linked earlier is a cwm flashable one. to manually do it just extract bootanimation.zip from the zip file downloaded.

Thanks for the tip! Just tried the manual push to /data/local but no joy. Upon boot it was blank, and the nightly flash restored the CM default in any event. Might be a permissions issue - should 644 and be owned by system, correct?

In fairness I did mention that I changed my splash screen. And while not exactly what he is looking for, it is up the same alley, at least within 1 second of boot time. If changing boot on stock is not possible, at least this is something.

Sorry guys this post has become convoluted rambling so I have edited it to try to make simpler.

2: take bootanimation.zip file from any of the lower sites and push it to data/local and reboot.
This is the best one I have ever seen. The youtube link in the post shows video of it running on an S2, so I am posting a screenshot of it working on my S3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982078&highlight=boot+animation
Here is another one that I will confirm working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30478959&postcount=20
Also this one if you open the zip /data and take the bootanimation.zip out and put in sd/data/local. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1888848&highlight=boot+animation
I am testing these and adding as I go.
